C#m           A                        E 
 Darling My Dear I'll tell You what is wrong

B                                                F#m
 I went to the mountain,but the mountain top was gone

C#m            A                        E
 Remember those trees where as kids we dream

B                                       F#m
 Tore them down years ago and built a factory

C#m               A                          E
 When that plant closed the workers all left town

B                                                             F#m
 I read in the paper that some kids were killed when it burnt down

C#m                 A                          E
 Now I stare at that field like circle in the earth

B                                              F#m
 Nothing 'ill grow now that's not soil its just dirt

      C#m              A
And I can't stand it whats the use

      F#m             E
In making something new

B              C#m    A       B
  If all that made Us must be ruined

        C#m          A
I can't demand it. I got nothing 

      F#m              E
But mounting debt and fear

B              C#m             A         B
  I scratch My head wondering how We got here 

C#m       A
  America, Americans

B                                         F#m
 The moon on the lake and swimming by its light

C#m            A                        E
